“The virtual patchbay for audio plug-ins”

PatchWork is a universal plug-ins patchbay that can host up to 64 VST plug-ins into any Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) in one instance. It is possible to chain effects in series or create up to 8 parallel chains that can be activated independently. This lets you create your favorite effects or instruments configurations within the plug-in, without the need for multiple busses. These configurations can be saved as presets and recalled instantly, or shared with multiple DAWs, using any plug-in format (full list below). Despite the name, you can forget about wires or cables: configuring plug-ins routing is as simple as adding or removing a row or a column in the rack’s matrix.

For each plug-in slot, latency compensation, presets management, undo/redo integration, and individual plug-in bypass are included for optimal operation. The plug-in also stores the position of the window for each plug-in so that the layout is restored with your session or saved with presets.

The plug-in is available as an audio effect or a virtual instrument so that it can be inserted on any type of track, with up to 8 audio channels.

Input and output level meters are also included to monitor the signal that is dispatched to inserted plug-ins.

V2.3 (2018/10/22)
– Drag and drop support (see our video):
—- drag and drop plug-ins between slots.
—- hold the alt key on Mac and Ctrl key on windows to copy (duplicate) a plug-in instead of moving it.
—- drop the plug-in before another to insert it in the chain.
—- drag and drop plug-ins between several instances of PatchWork or accross plug-ins (compatible with the latest preview of Late Replies, MB-7 Mixer and Axiom).
—- drag and drop .dll, .vst, .vst3, or .component files directly from the Finder or Explorer onto plug-in slots.
—- drag and drop .plgnfo files (previously saved from the software) directly from the Finder or Explorer onto plug-in slots.
– Built-in EQ plug-in can now load and manipulate impulse responses (IR).
– Fixed: effect tail not processed anymore when just inserted on a track (avoids using CPU when not necessary).
– Fixed: built-in multitap delay plug-in could get out of sync in some host applications.
– Improved performance of the built-in EQ plug-in.
– Improved performance when saving preset/session with many built-in plug-ins.
